AC Milan closing in on €40m agreement to sign Christopher Nkunku from Chelsea | OneFootball

AC Milan are close to reaching an agreement with Chelsea FC over the signing of France international attacking midfielder Christopher Nkunku (27), as per L’Equipe. The Rossoneri and the Blues are expected to find a compromise this Thursday over a transfer package ranging from €40m to €45m. Nkunku has already agreed on personal terms with the Serie A side.

Nkunku was looking for a way out of Stamford Bridge, and Chelsea were also keen to recoup their losses on the former PSG Academy graduate. Nkunku has failed to replicate in West London the form that earned him a €60m move from RB Leipzig two years ago. Nkunku still had four years left on his Chelsea deal. Aston Villa, RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich were also interested in signing the 27-year-old, but Milan look to have won the race to Nkunku’s signing.
